Biology

Physiology

Kyurem is a grey and blue colored, bipedal Pokémon of indefinable but seemingly draconian basis. Kyurem has a unique blue head and snout and has yellow eyes, has a pair of pointed light bluish horns on its head and a third yellow horn on its skull. Its face has a bit of resemblance to Giratina right down to its jaws. Kyurem's neck is long and gray in color with lines running around its whole body, legs, arms and tail.

Kyurem has two arms, each with its own claw and each arm is jointed together from its blue oddly shaped wings, believed that its used for flying as well as storing cold energy. Its legs are somewhat slender unlike Reshiram or Zekrom and its tail has a blue oddly shaped spike on its tip. It should be noted that on its overworld sprite, the left part of its overall bodyparts is somehow broken and smaller than the right part.

Kyurem is the only Ice-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V which isn't a pure Ice-type.

It is thought that Kyurem will be the mascot of the third version in Generation V due to the similar stats.

Origin

Kyurem is mainly based on its gray color, which is somehow opposed to Reshiram and Zekrom's respective colors, black and white, and their concept of Yin and Yang. Being in the "center" of Reshiram's and Zekrom's coloration, it might symbolize neutrality. It might also symbolize wuji, or void, the absence of yin and yang. Appearance wise, like Zekrom, it also seems to be based off a theropod and a European dragon. It also seems to have a somewhat incomplete appearance, due to the fact that compared to Reshiram and Zekrom, it only has a base stat total of 660. It also has a more seemingly broken left side, particularly in its wing and jaw, making it look incomplete as well.
